all the wheel nuts are properly/securely tightened to the
specified torque.
When lowering the vehicle, make sure all portions of your body
are clear off the vehicle as it is lowered to the ground. Have the
wheel nuts tightened with the torque spanner to the required
torque, as soon as possible after changing wheels.
If you have rotated , repaired , changed your tires or changed
the wheel rims, check the wheel nuts are still tight (to the reqd.
torque) after driving about 1000 Kms.
Check the air pressure of the replaced tire. If the pressure is lower
than recommended, drive slowly to the nearest service station and
inflate to the correct pressure. If it is too high, adjust it until it is
correct. Always reinstall the valve cap after checking or adjusting
tire pressure. If the cap is not replaced, dirt and moisture could get
into the valve core and cause air leakage. If you lose a valve cap, buy
another and install it as soon as possible.
Restore all the Tools, Jack and Flat Tire
Mount the flat tire back to the bracket on the rear of the vehicle.
Double check to ensure the flat tire is secure and not loose.
Replace the tools (jack, wheel spanner, etc.,) in their storage
location.
It is recommended to fix the flat tire at the nearest tire shop
and swap the spare wheel back. The wheel balance and
alignment differ from wheel to wheel. This may lead to steering
and braking issues.
